14. SARCOPENIC OBESITY NEGATIVELY AFFECTS MUSCLE STRENGTH, PHYSICAL FUNCTION AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN OBESE ELDERLY WOMEN
RESUMO Avaliamos o efeito negativo da obesidade sarcopênica (OS) sobre a força muscular, função física e qualidade de vida em idosas obesas usando o índice de massa magra apendicular (IMMA) ajustada para o IMC, e aLM ajustado pela estatura e massa gorda residual. Participaram cinquenta e oito mulheres idosas obesas com idade entre 60 a 70 anos de idade

18. Cutoff values for appendicular skeletal muscle mass and strength in relation to fear of falling among Brazilian older adults: cross-sectional study
ABSTRACT CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Sarcopenia is an emerging public health issue in Brazil. Because of its high prevalence and the lack of national data, the objective here was to identify cutoff points for appendicular skeletal muscle (ASM) and handgrip strength in relation to fear of falling among Brazilian older adults. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional

19. New insights into the effects of irisin levels in HIV-infected subjects: correlation with adiposity, fat-free mass, and strength parameters
ABSTRACT Objective Patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have an increased risk of metabolic disorders and alterations on irisin levels. Therefore, the purpose of the current investigation was to quantify the circulating irisin concentration in HIV-infected subjects under highly active antiretroviral therapy and to determine possibl

20. Validity analysis of one-repetition maximum strength test for determining the hamstrings-to-quadriceps ratio
Abstract One of the approaches to evaluate injury prediction is the hamstrings-to-quadriceps peak torque conventional ratio (H:Q ratio). The gold standard for assessment of muscle strength in vivo is by isokinetic dynamometry; however, the one-repetition maximum strength test (1-RM) presents high correlation with isokinetic data. This study aimed to compare

21. Neurotological Findings at a Health Unit for Adults with Cervicalgia
Abstract Introduction The cervical spine is a flexible link between the sensory platform of the skull and torso. The fundamental principle of its operation is due to the balance between muscle strength and flexibility, and any dysfunction of this balance causes neck pain, known as cervicalgia. Objective The objective of this study is to analyze the most pr

22. Relationship between pulmonary and cardiac abnormalities in sickle cell disease: implications for the management of patients
ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the association between clinical, pulmonary, and cardiovascular findings in patients with sickle cell disease and, secondarily, to compare these findings between sickle cell anemia patients and those with other sickle cell diseases. Methods: Fifty-nine adults were included in this cross-sectional study; 47 had sickle cell an

23. Analysis of isokinetic muscle function and postural control in individuals with intermittent claudication
BACKGROUND: Intermittent claudication (IC) is a debilitating condition that mostly affects elderly people. IC is manifested by a decrease in ambulatory function. Individuals with IC present with motor and sensory nerve dysfunction in the lower extremities, which may lead to deficits in balance. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to measure postural control and

24. Evaluation of rotator cuff muscle strength in healthy individuals
OBJECTIVE: To compare the strength generated by the rotator muscles of the shoulder joint between the right upper limb and left upper limb among healthy individuals. METHODS: To evaluate the muscle strength of upper limbs from isometric contractions in the horizontal direction (rotation) an isometric dynamometer was used, equipped with transducers, signal c
